All Paddock Testing

Use All Paddock Testing (APT) to optimise your fertiliser costs

All Paddock Testing (APT) is a service provided exclusively through Hill Laboratories. A farmer using APT gets soil (in sample form) from the majority of paddocks tested, instead of the standard practice of testing only a few. As a result with the more comprehensive All Paddock Testing report you can optimise your fertiliser application by paddock (often for decreased cost).

All Paddock Testing produces a complete picture of nutrient levels

The picture below shows an example of different nutrient levels across a typical farm on a per paddock basis. (Map of Northland farming example after testing).

A comprehensive APT lab report is sent out identifying the nutrient levels on a paddock-by-paddock basis. The information is displayed using colour coded farm maps (nutrient density gradients) and a full set of standard Hill Laboratories reports
